Our hosts are then joined by Chelsie Kramer, Texas State Organizer for the American Immigration Council, who offers valuable insights into the economic contributions of immigration. Chelsie explains how immigrants make up 17% of the state’s population but 21% of its workforce, contributing billions in tax revenue and bolstering Texas’ economy. She also discusses the need for secure borders and legal pathways to support workforce demands and strengthen border communities.
Chelsie further tackles the challenges of misinformation surrounding immigration, sharing her experiences and advocating for fact-based, pro-immigration advocacy. She also outlines her vision for immigration reform, including expanding visa categories to address labor shortages in sectors like agriculture and warehousing.
Tune in for an in-depth discussion on how conservation and immigration are integral to Texas’ future and the policies that can help drive sustainable growth for both wildlife and communities across the state.
